Abstract

This research attempts to investigate self-repairs used by trainee interpreters (students) in consecutive interpreting. Based on the collected data from the eight postgraduates majoring in interpretation, the study will identify different types of self-repair and explore possible reasons for self-repair made by students, in hope of providing useful suggestions for interpreting practice.
